THE OFFICIAL 2011 FANTASY GAME THREAD

[redraider]

The brackets for W's one on one tournaments are posted under the thread "One on One Tournaments". Good luck everyone!

[Shrykespeare]

I got tired of waiting for the updates, so I went and figured out who won the October Regulars Leagues. There are some surprises!



Regulars Ultimate League (OCT) - 80s and 90s Pro Wrestling

Winner: Shrykespeare, 88.5 pts
Runner-up: donnie, 83.5 pts
3rd place: Wasp, 80.5 pts

YES!!!! My first victory in almost a year!!

Turned out I picked a damn good roster:

The Skin I Live In
Puss in Boots
Melancholia
Twilight: Breaking Dawn Pt 1
The Artist
Shame
Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol
A Separation

I was #7 in User Rating, #3 in PTA, tied for #8 in Top 5, and #5 in Box Office. How I WISH I had been around in the final round of either Super League tournament!!




Regulars Box Office League (OCT) - Favorite Movies Where the Hero Dies

Winner: Samiam1000, $670.0M
Runner-up: silversurfer, $662.1M
3rd place: jas_8382, $648.0M

This is Samiam's first-ever victory in a league. (In case you are wondering, he is a former co-worker of mine who I talked into playing, and still does.) Here is his winning slate:

A Very Harold and Kumar 3D Christmas
Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 1
Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol
Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows
The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo
We Bought a Zoo

The combination of Harold/Dragon just barely beat out surfer's pick of The Muppets. The other four films they had in common.

Always nice to see someone get their first win, especially someone I brought into the game!

Congrats Shryke, that was a great slate.

[empire13]

aahhh! can't even win at being a loser. 3rd place in the ultimate bankrupt and 2nd in the box office bankrupt (by a miniscule $286,000).

[undeadmonkey]

umm, there's a $40M difference in shrykes number and MMGs for me in the Box Office half year, just curious who made the mistake?

[Shrykespeare]

Oh boy.

UDM, the reason for the discrepancy was because I neglected to factor in War Horse when calculating the final results.

So it would seem that YOU win the BO HY, not jas.

Uh.... congratulations?

[Geezer]

lol wow!

[Geezer]

Congrats UDM! I can't let this go unnoticed, you deserve it! Hell of a year you put together!

[W]

Yeah, I forgot that I only picked two films in the Ultimate leagues until this last week... It was one of those, "I want to lock these in, but I'll figure out what to do with the rest of the slate before next week" things then I forgot.

[undeadmonkey]

Thanks Geez and Shryke! I was already looking on to next year to finally get the top spot, but this does give a nice little ego boost.

[Chienfantome]

Congratulations UDM !

[numbersix]

Well done UDM!
